Took Out The Garrett GTI 2500 For A Snow Hunt Today!:biggrin:

Took out the Garrett GTI 2500 this afternoon. I used the Scorcher coil, which doesn't allow imaging. However, it was nice to hear the oversize target ringing audio when going over some beer cans buried in the snow. I hunted in true all metal mode, which is just as deep as the AT Gold and maybe the AT MAX. It gives a VDI number for the target and a depth reading when pinpointing. Although I didn't use the program, the GTI 2500 has a "surface Blanking" program, which tunes out the shallow targets and only beeps on the deep ones. Many of us have been hoping/asking for years to add the Imaging (sizing) feature, the large target warning and surface blanking to the newer models.

Below are the dug coins from today......I hunted for about 1 1/2 hours, with a comfortable temperature of -7 C / 19.4 F, no wind and a bright sunshine. I am going to sleep well tonite! :goodnight:
 
John, you ever check out/ follow what the ice fishermen might drop, leave. You know they have high tech fish detectors along with underwater cams. Who knows what you could find with them? Especially with hard ice lasting 6months or so. Drill couple holes, drop a couple lines. Go look around with the cam. Come back , pull up dinner. Practice fillet & Release. Change up of fish dinner instead of jerky steaks. Bet those lakes up your way got some rumors of cars falling threw the ice. Boat's turning over / sunk.
No doubt in my mind you could sniff something out.
